🌠 SEO All Around The World?

Ever wake up one morning and say to yourself:

“Jeepers self, if only I could know just how different SEO is across the world to better fine-tune my SEO strategies!”

If so, you’re definitely not alone.

The art of SEO across the countries (the globe even!) is something that should interest every possible individual who makes their money online. And that’s why the following article should be investigated (and be sure to return back when you’re done for even more excellence):

There, you’ll find goodies like:

“…Your search competition might vary in different geographies

When you’ve only marketed your brand in one country, it will take time to get a social media following, email subscribers, traffic, and other metrics from a new international audience. This is because people around the world are just getting familiar with your brand for the first time.

Although SEO focuses on search, it will similarly take time to grow awareness on another country’s Google or Bing domain.

“Every region of the world has its own Google ccTLD (for example, Google.com, Google.es, Google.fr, Google.jp, etc). Each Google domain follows similar — if not identical — algorithms, but each one is ultimately its own market with its own economy of publishers,” Becker explains….”

and

“… A region’s language and local nuances can impact your rankings in that territory.

If you’ve done any research on SEO, you probably know that keyword research is a vital way to create and optimize content so it ranks on Google. This is no different in other regions where English or your website’s language might not be as smoothly translated.

“When serving content in different languages, translations or localisations sometimes might not be enough to win rankings or get valuable traffic from another locale,” says Bujalska-Exner.

“Why? Even when the most amazing content is optimized for one region, it might not have a similar meaning or wording when translated to another regional language.”…”

and more!

International SEO could make for an excellent challenge, blog post, tutorial and more! You could structure it like so:

Step 1.) Determine *where* you’d like to sell

Step 2.) Ensure you have language translation capabilities on your site

Step 3.) Make it so!
